Fear is a big factor of anxiety. Fear can be innate or learned. When fear
becomes triggered at wrong or inappropriate times, anxiety may result. Anxiety
includes many different disorders. It can come in the form of phobias, panic
attacks, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, posttraumatic
stress disorder, and generalized stress disorder. This book details each
disorder, what may cause the anxiety, and treatment of the disorder. Most
anxiety is treated with antidepressants in adults. However, in teenagers
antidepressants have been known to increase the risk of suicidal thinking and
behavior. Teenagers with anxiety disorders are better treated by learning ways
to control their anxiety. There are also other alternative ways of treating
anxiety, such as psychotherapy, acupuncture, aromatherapy, hypnotism, and
virtual reality. Some alternative treatments have proven better than others
have. When reading this book, there is also the history of anxiety and the way
anxiety affects the brain.
